whoa buddy, ahah sorry.

but what are you planning on doing to it? i'd say first thing you do is sell the wheels and run on some steelies until you have money to buy some new ones. or after you do some body work. is there any engine mods? list some stuff.

oh and btw, what's that antenna for on your front bumper?

So far it's all bone stock exept N1 axel back muffler...my plans so far is to make it a JDM Dailey Driver...Oh and the antenna looking thing on my bumper is a JDM Corner Marker Pole...Most DA Integras in Japan came with a motorized pole that came out from the bumper...

Good to see another DA owner! If you get rid of the parking pole, im sure a few guys from g2ic.com would drop a pretty penny for it. As for wheels, I'd go with some gsr blades right now. Looks good tho; looking forward to seeing it built.

For sure dump the rims. Other than that looks decent for that price. Good luck with the project.

Good stuff, but like its been said before.... be rid of those wheels ASAP!!!

Personally, i would keep that bumper also... if its a real JDM bumper, then that thing is extremely rare (at least over here on the east coast it is...). If you don't want to keep it on the car, for looks' sake, i would keep it in the back of the garage at least.

Go on ebay and pick up some 15" drags with good tires for $600... off of this one seller. They look great. Its a good deal.

Next. Get some coilover suspension cuz its going to look like a monster truck. CF fiber hood off of craigslist and it will look clean

Bumper is 100% NOT JDM. I'd lose that thing ASAP too.

pretty nice find...
Get yourself a new driver door, hood, and front bumper...
but before you do that go to your local acura deal and tell them to fix the seat belts... they will do it for free...
also put thos wheels on craigslist in the free section and rock some black steelies until you have money for some nice wheels...

if you have any questions about anything feel free to pm me... I am always willing to help out a fellow DA owner
